What stops it from buying, deleting, or publishing something?

The guard scores irreversibility on-page: in your own browser risky clicks get a proceed, block, or ask overlay, while the driven automation window stops the run at 0.65 and tells you to narrow the goal.

Does it need the browser extension to work?

No. Claude plus the MCP bundle is enough for automation; the unpacked extension is an optional add-on that applies the same irreversible-click guard to pages you click yourself.

What happens without an API key?

Multi-step goals fail loudly with missing_api_key instead of silently navigating, while single actions like navigate, click, and read page still work without one.

Which browser does it actually open?

Brave first, then Chrome, Chromium, and Edge as fallbacks across macOS, Windows, and Linux; the automation window uses a clean profile and refuses paths resolving to a real profile.

Download the askjev .mcpb from Releases and double-click it, then paste your TypeSafe API key in Claude Desktop's install dialog. No terminal, scripts or ports; Claude starts AskJev and AskJev opens the browser itself.

Where is my key kept and what is sent?

The key lives in Chrome storage.sync, Claude's MCP environment and optionally ~/.askjev/api-key at mode 600, and goes only to api.typesafe.ai. There are no AskJev servers or analytics backend, and the default CDP path never opens a port.

Does it always open a WebSocket?

No. The default cdp path never binds a port; the legacy WebSocket bridge opens only under ASKJEV_MODE=bridge, and its pairing token stays on localhost at ws://127.0.0.1.

This is one of several Jev listings for the same project. The canonical entry is Askjev — shantanugoel.

About this project

Talk to Claude in plain English. AskJev drives Brave/Chrome. TypeSafe Jev decides on-page. Guard freezes irreversible clicks. No shell. No CDP flags. No paste-JSON rituals. Install the extension, Auto-connect once, reopen Claude, and chat. Built with TypeSafe System One — page decisions use Jev (Noul / Choice / Score), not Claude as the planner. Download askjev-1.7.3.mcpb from Releases and double-click it. Claude Desktop opens its install dialog. Paste your TypeSafe API key in that dialog → Install.

Highlights

Installs by double-clicking the MCP bundle and pasting a TypeSafe key, with no shell commands, flags, or ports.
Runs an autopilot loop of page observation, Jev next-step decision, action, and repeat for multi-step goals.
Guard freezes pay, delete, send, publish, deploy-class, and sign-out steps at irreversible score 0.65 or above.
Keys stay in encrypted storage or local files and go only to the TypeSafe API endpoint.

Watch out

Needs a TypeSafe key for multi-step goals, opens a clean automation profile rather than the real browser profile, and ships no analytics backend. Copy reviewed against the repository README on 2026-10-04, not from running it.
